Discusware?

Trying to find out what happened to all the Discusware support pages? The discusware IPs/domains all now point to dyndns with NO info on this site about the product. There used to be good support resources for that forum software. Where did it go?

That is a parked domain, the owner of the domain has changed it (from the looks of the WhoIs record back in March) to use the parked DNS service. Neither we (the other users of Dyn's services) nor Dyn will know why the owner did that.
You would have to try to contact the owner to find out why they've done that. Obviously email to them at the discusware.com domain won't work, so you'd have to find some other method of contacting them.

Just for what its worth, I tried to resurrect my old discus forum, and find that it works for the most part. There are a few glitches -- like the board regeneration will not work. The "Instructions" hyperlink points to "Dyn.com" which is a disappointment. However I found that I have all (?) the discus instructions on my computer. If anyone is interested I can send these by email ($5.00) for my time, or copy them on paper - will cost $0.8 per page plus shipping. If anyone is interested, I will look into the effort required, and get back to you. Believe me, I am not making any money out of this. I just feel sorry for those who are stuck with no support and no instructions. Hubert F. Sturges hfsturges@gmail.com

That's too bad. My discus forum suddenly stopped working, and the program gives a "premature end of script headers" notation on my server's error log. All permissions etc are correct. Shame I can't get technical help from Discusware.
